The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 1254: clear and direct
Chapter 1254 Clearly
When he suddenly decided to attack Yunjing with the counter-attack, he did not have time to make further arrangements and could only put on a full show, asking Xiao Rongyan’s guards to send a message back not to tell his brothers and sisters in the Great Zhou camp first, so as to avoid revealing any flaws, which would allow Cui Shanzhong to see something and cause him to be controlled by Xiliang for nothing.
Third brother and the others must be very worried!
“But… Fifth Young Master, do we really want to leave you in the palace? It’s too dangerous!” Xiao Ruohai was still worried.
Bai Qingyu placed himself in the palace so that when the Bai family army made trouble in Yunjing City, Li Tianjiao felt that Bai Qingyu was still here and there was a way out, so that the Xiliang soldiers would not risk their lives or simply escape from Yunjing.
Now that Li Tianfu is in the hands of the Great Zhou, only when Li Tianjiao is completely dealt with in Yunjing can Xiliang be completely pacified. Otherwise… if Li Tianjiao is allowed to escape like the little emperor of Wei did, the Great Zhou will have to block Li Tianjiao everywhere. If anti-Zhou forces gather wherever Li Tianjiao goes, troops will have to be sent to suppress them. Although it will be difficult to succeed, it is still very annoying.
Therefore, Bai Qingyu will solve all the worries for Da Zhou this time. As long as the Bai family army sets fire to and opens the city gate in Yunjing, Bai Qingyu will capture Li Tianjiao personally.
“Also, let’s put as many drugs as possible in the water jars used by the Xiliang soldiers before we act! There’s no need to kill the Xiliang soldiers, as they may be used by our Great Zhou in the future. Let’s search for knockout drugs, laxatives… these are non-lethal drugs that can weaken the Xiliang soldiers’ fighting power in the city and use all that can be used!” Bai Qingyu thought as he said, “Control the time well, don’t do it too early, or General Cui will easily find out. This is only an auxiliary means… not our main means of attacking the city. The main focus is on the soldiers guarding the city gates and the Imperial Guards in the palace!”
“Yes!” Xiao Ruohai nodded, “Then put the medicine in the water jar after they have their last meal of the day. After the shift change, the soldiers in Xiliang will always have to drink water.”
Bai Qingyu nodded.
“There is one more thing we must tell our brothers in the Bai Family Army!” Bai Qingyu moved closer to Xiao Ruohai and whispered, “Once the city gates are opened and we see the Great Zhou Army or the Yan Army entering the city, if the brothers… are still alive, we will pretend that the Xiliang Army is surrendering loudly!”
Since the soldiers of the Bai family army… are able to wear the Xiliang army armor that the people of the Great Zhou in the city have obtained with great difficulty, they must make the most of their hard work.
Wars are actually fought for morale. Once someone in the defending army surrenders, then… fear will be like a flood, sweeping away every soldier defending the city. Fear of death… is human instinct!
If everyone is not afraid of death and fights to the death, then even if the soldiers are afraid, they will fight to the end.
If some people surrender without fighting because they are afraid of death, then except for a few strong-willed soldiers and generals who have faith in their hearts and can hold on, the rest of the ordinary soldiers will probably follow suit and surrender.
As for surrender, once someone takes the lead, it will be easy for others to do so. After all… between death and life, everyone will choose to survive.
Moreover, the Great Zhou did not intend to massacre the entire city upon entering it. Presumably, the Western Liang army had heard about this. So when the Great Zhou entered the cities of Western Liang, it took in the people of Western Liang, distributed food to them, and gave them land, treating them like its own people. It also implemented new policies. It was for this reason that the cities taken by the Great Zhou… were very stable, and no rebellion occurred.
What is a soldier? It can be summed up in four words… Protect the country and the people!
Since the people don’t need them to risk their lives to protect them, and the country is about to perish, they naturally have to protect their own lives at this time!
Xiao Ruohai understood what Bai Qingyu meant and nodded in agreement.

Xiao Rongyan sent people to watch the North Gate and East Gate day and night.
Naturally, they also knew that there were constant minor frictions between the Yan army and the Zhou army in private.
But… fortunately, Xiao Rongyan had already privately discussed with Bai Qingqi afterwards, telling Bai Qingqi that Bai Qingyu would use fireworks as a signal to open the North Gate and the East Gate.
After Bai Qingqi found out, she was going to send someone to the capital city to deliver a letter to her elder sister, telling her not to worry. However, Xiao Rongyan said that he had already sent someone to deliver the letter, and reminded her… Bai Qingqi should just keep this matter to herself, and must not spread it to anyone else, lest the news leak out and threaten Bai Qingyu’s safety in Yunjing city.
Bai Qingqi knew the seriousness of the matter, so he didn’t even tell Bai Jinxiu and the others about it. He just made preparations in secret.
Xiao Rongyan looked at the goose hairpin in his hand. After Yue Shi came back… he said that Bai Qingyan had given birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, prematurely. Regardless of the children and her own recent birth, she wanted to come to Xiliang to rescue Bai Qingyu and the seventh girl of the Bai family, and even dispatched troops to the State of Yan.
He stroked the hairpin with his fingers and closed his eyes. A Bao had promised him that she would always put the child and her own health first in the future. She had always been a person who kept her word. This time… was she really going to break her promise to him?
After reading the letter he sent, she knew that Bai Qingyu was playing along with the trick, but she was still so worried. She didn’t believe that her other brothers and sisters could rescue Bai Qingyu and the seventh daughter of the Bai family. She didn’t believe… that he would protect her brothers and sisters?
“Master!” Yue Shi hurried in with a stern face. After kneeling on one knee to salute, he stepped forward, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Rongyan.
Yue Shi had just been intercepted by the Bai family guards, who specifically told him to hand the letter to Xiao Rongyan. They also specifically told him that the eldest lady had said that Yue Shi was a person who could not hide his thoughts, and that he must go in with a stern face and not be discovered by the people sent by the Queen Mother of Yan to keep an eye on Xiao Rongyan, so as not to ruin the eldest lady’s plans.
Yue Shi then came in with a stern face, but he was very happy in his heart. The eldest lady must have thought it through since she sent someone to deliver a letter to the master.
When Xiao Rongyan saw that the envelope was written by Bai Qingyan, he quickly put the goose hairpin into the box, opened the letter, and saw Bai Qingyan’s beautiful handwriting.
Ah Yan, my husband, I am grateful for your words…
Seeing these eight words, the corners of Xiao Rongyan’s lips unconsciously rose.
Yue Shi looked at his master’s expression and couldn’t help but feel happy.
In the letter, Bai Qingyan told Xiao Rongyan in detail about the conditions of the two children, and his words were full of self-blame.
Bai Qingyan also said that she did not come to Xiliang. She said… She would take good care of her health for Xiao Rongyan and take good care of their children, because she believed that Xiao Rongyan would definitely rescue her brother and sister, because he was the one… who was willing to protect her from the wind and rain and someone she could rely on! A Niang and A Yu also believed in him!
The smile in Xiao Rongyan’s eyes deepened.
Bai Qingyan also wrote clearly in the letter about the deployment of troops to the border of Yan State and the announcement of coming to Xiliang.
